Star Wars in poetry

by EstelPax


Brothers fighting brothers, dreams crashing down.
A frown upon many a noble brow. A battle rages and an empire emerges.
Battles rage, dreams fade.
Life goes out.
Life comes in.
Neither side seems to win.
Then when all seems lost a spark flares into being.
A being who sparks a win a cause many to the Rebellion.
The Empire still rules,
Causing endless strife to those who are fighting for life.
Then he comes causing reform.
Now the Empire is on the run,
For the rebellion has won.
All hail the rebel scum.

I liked it even though it really wasn't poetry form.

Life goes out.
Life comes in.


i think these can be on the same line.

Yeah, re-format it the way Surreal suggested and you'll have an interesting poem.

I believe this is the first poem I've read about Star Wars...

Interesting, but it isn't a poem. Other than changing the format, I think that this is a good poem, although I think it could have been a little longer.

I like it. I don't understand Star Wars at all, but this poem kind of makes me realize why my dad forced my to sit through them all! I also agree with sureal though, you need to break it up a bit more or it's quite difficult to read.

Yes, yes, listen to Sureal! :) I love the feel of this one, as usual, but if you break it up it'll read much better.
Please post the new version and I'll crit again. PM me when you do!
Cheers, Shafter
P.S. Oh yeah, the last "hale" is "hail." Just one of those typos. :razz:

This isn't really formatted like a poem. Rather, it's prose.

Something more like:

Brothers fighting brothers, dreams crashing down,
A frown upon many a noble brow,
A battle rages an empire emerges.
Battles rage, dreams fade. Life goes out,
Life comes in. Neither side seems to win.
Then when all seems lost,
A spark flares into being.
A being who sparks a win,
An cause many to the rebellion.
The empire still rules, causing endless strife
To those who are fighting for life.
Then he comes causing reform.
The empire is on the run for the rebellion has won.
All hale the rebel scum.

Of course, it's up to you where you put the line breaks. I've placed it so there's some internal rhyming, but you may decide that you'd rather have the rhymes as couplets.

You also have a number of grammar problems in there (such as 'empire' instead of 'Empire') that you need to address.

star wars is the best thing in the world!!!!!!!

the force is like duct tape,
it has a light side and a dark side,
and it holds the world together.

I like it because it's about Star Wars, but it's not in poetry format





Men occasionally stumble over the truth, but most of them pick themselves up and hurry off as if nothing had happened.
